I was gifted one of these and was so impressed that I ended up gifting another to a friend. It splits into two parts with screw-on caps, and the ends fit neatly into each other. The quality of the material is excellent, and the design is really stylish. The treatment on the top part of the cue makes it glide smoothly on your fingers. Overall, it's a fantastic cue for the price – lightweight, well-balanced, and beautifully crafted. I highly recommend it
